then guys like Jack and Ray - they have to up and fly to the cave where their youth pictures were painted on walls using berry mush and animal blood with a chewed stick and bone marrow.
Oh yeah? Take this!

Welcome to the 20th century. I hear you can even get colour TVs these days.

LOL! John! John! I know this will come as a surprise to you, but we're in the 21st century. That photo was taken in the 20th century. And, that may be the WORST spray job I've ever seen.
You got it right, Bren. Scotch Irish all the way. Interestingly, both my mother and father had dark hair. I was a result of either a recessive gene, or mom's fooling around with the milkman. The latter, by the way, was what my father taught me to say, as a toddler, whenever the subject of my coloring came up. I shocked many an upstanding citizen with that one.

animal blood and bone marrow....
cute pic there jack.. are you positive that could actually be you. sure were a cute looking kid.... what happened??
seabear- bren is about right.. scrapbooking is a really cool and creative way for my wife to document the events and occasions of our life. she is a complete shutter-bug, so we NEVER run out of photos. but, she can run out of ideas, which leads to the eventual, "Husband goes to mailbox" page. hey, not everything has to be serious!!

Wow! I never knew! But I'll bet there are about 10,000 other hobbies out there that I would not have thought of either.
And, as to;
hey, not everything has to be serious!!
That I CERTAINLY knew!
Very little in my life IS!

Oh it's me alright. I'd know those ears anywhere. In a stiff breeze I used to do my imitation of the flying nun.
I think, in 30 or 40 years, your kids will be REALLY happy that scrapbooking was your wife's hobby. They aren't gonna care for a long time, but the time will come in their lives when all that documentation will mean the world to them.

Lon - welcome and enjoy the equipment! I would have chimed in sooner, but I had a tough time finding the original cave and the limestone has eroded so badly over the eons that not one single picture of my youth remains!!
A well, I did find the wheel dad invented.

When did this happen ?
Seriously, I started typing 21st century but I just couldn't post that bad a colorization job, call it 21st century, and live with myself.

Yeah, you look like every baby picture down mom's side of the family for the past 4 generations.
And as for looking like family members... bro and I split the family... I ended up looking like mom's (Irish) side, bro looks like dad's (German) side. It's odd when no one sees a resemblance between my dad and I, yet when my mom's brother (maternal uncle) still had auburn/brown hair, in dim light you couldn't tell him and I apart, which led mom to yell at him at the front door one day for knocking when he "has a g** d*** key anyway!"... well, *I* had a key, he didn't.
